How's it going? I'm Nori, from Kagawa, Shikoku.I love there sooooo much. I've also lived in Osaka for nearly 8 years. I love people in Osaka who speak like comedians.(That's unlikely Japanese character.. You would find it in a train or the town.) I'd love you to relax in J-Hoppers Osaka like your home,and feel coming back again and again. I'm really looking forward to meeting many fantastic people!

Hello everybody, I love this job. I have never thought how nice it is until I started working here as a night worker. I love the J-Hoppers’ fans, who are from all over the world. It’s interesting to know their national histories and cultures which I did not learn at school. It’d be my great pleasure if I could assist you to create your wonderfull memories with my knowledge as a native Osakan as well as by spending the peacefull and the nice evening here.
